1'ratures off the Trading; and Closing:
Prices ou Board of Trade,
CHICAOO. Aug. 7. Fnurrled by worse
and worse reports about black ruat in
i.lunitoua the rtrneat market today made a
violent upward Jump. Closing prices were,
at nearly top ilgurea reached, to l&lSc
htgntr. Loin unlHhed a ahada to Wfla
up, oats oft ftiPHc and provialona at an ai
aucs of .-wuwo to 17i'uc.
louuy was the first tima that Canadian
autuunt is acknowledged the crop situa
tion to be serious concerning the black
rust In wheat. At Chicago the admission
caused less surprise, and excitement than
appeared to be the case at markets nearer
the sceno. There wt-re advices that North
Dakota ileitis, which had promised 'M
bushe.a an acre had shriveled to 8 bush
tls ih.s morning and that half of the
titmiiin huu become apparent within the
last i wo days. It was also stated thai
tiom Hreckenrldge, Minn., north" to tho
boundary line wheat had been damaged,
'i ho Kansas oftlclal report Indicating a
yield the smallest since 1899 was another
Imllleh influence In profit taking which
led to a reaction tor a while and ao
did comprehensive statements that the
shortage In' Kussla waa exaggerated. Ac
tive baying was renewed however, and
latd right up to the cloae. During the
day, September ranged from 924o to 93c,
cluaing steady, Vs'Hnc net higher at 93 c.
Oenurul rains weakened corn as com
pared with wheat. September fluctuated
between 6414 and 65c, with tba close ateady
at tH4,c, a net gain of Vic. Cash grades
were easy. No. if yellow finished at 64V4i
Light offerings took the snap out of
oats. September Taxied from 411e to 42,c
and In the end waa So down at 4ZVtc.
Liberal exports toned up provialona. The
result was an all around advance pork,

NEW YORK. Aug. 7. That the stock
market should have shown further un
settlement today was hardly surprising to
those who have watched the recent trend
! events. Week-end developments em
braced number of adverse crop reports,
some more unfavorable railroad earnings
including Bt. taul with a deficit for the
liscal year of 83.300,0i0 after payment of
fixed .charges and dividends, the harden
ing of discounts In London and affairs po
litical and Industrial at home.
The attitude of the Stanley Investigating
committee at last Paturcays session in
this city waa the subject of no little dis
cussion in the financial districts where the
opinion seemed to prevail that the United
Statea Bteel corporation may have to di
vorce from its transportation companies If
It Is to keep within the bounds of the anti
trust laws.
On the whole the support accorded the
steel sharea today was less effective than
that given to other stocks In the same
class. The stock was again sold principally
by brokers recently active on the "short
side." The bear account was Impartial,
however, lis attack on Union Pacific, Le
high Valley and Bt. Psul as well as many
Ishues of lesser Importance putting the
bull faction on .the defensive throughout
the session.
The strength of the Hill stocks, the cop
pers and some of the apeclalltes may be
explained on the ground that British price
levels before the recent decline rendered
ir.em less vulnerable to bear assaults.
Trading langulshd during the afternoon
until well toward the close when a buy
ing movement of some proportions sent the
list to Its top level. The recovery met wltn
some resistance and prices snaded from the
best here and there, but final quotation re
sulted In many substantial gains.
London was again observing a bank holi
day so the usual channels of market bro
kerage were closed there, but local houses
reported aome buying for that center.
The bond market was Irregular with total
sales par valua of 31,449,000. United States
government bonds were unchanged on call.
Number of aales and leading quotations
on stocks were as follows;

CATTLE Cattle receipts were very large
tine uivi utiis, tara Deing reponea in.
This Is the heaviest run of any day since
November 14. The receipts consisted very
largely of western catt.e, thers being more
angers In sight than any day so tar this
season. At the same time the offerings of
native cattle were lighter than has been
the case of late. With so many cattle In
sight it waa not surprising tnat buyers
were inclined to bear prices and that
their early bids were sharply lower on ail
kinds. At the same time sellers were not
prepared to make any concessions without
a hara fight and were Invariably holding
for steady or stronger prices. As a result
01 mis eany morning passed with almost
nothing being done and It was well along
toward midday before the trade was really
under way.
when buyers and sellers finally cot to
gether on a trading basis the gooa kinds
or beet steers, were Just about steady, with
me meaium ana interior kinds slow to a
little lower. The best range steers sold as
ntgn as eo.10. While there were no very
choice cornfeds thera wera some good
enough to bring $7.
Good cows and heifers wera steady and
there was not much change In the market
on the canner grades, but ths medium
kinds were around 10c lower than last
week s close.
Good feeders sold In about last week's
notches, but the common and trashy kinds
were slow and lower.

HOGS Hog supply dropped to ths lowest
level of the season, only forty-two cars
showing up. Not since the latter part of
March has the car record been less than
this estimate and only on two or three
previous occasions during the slack period
following New Year's did receipt dwindle
to less than 2,000 head.
A run of famine slse naturally . caused
a panicky scramble In buying circles and
yards were cleared In hurried fashion at
broad advances. Ths main market was a
10415c higher affair, but now and then a
load of weighty butcher or lard hogs
brought figures fully 15c and perhaps 20o
over those paid Saturday. The bottom
portion of the trade usually drew ths most
Improvement.
Everything moved scaleward within an
hour or so after the opening and shippers
were aggressive buyera at all times. About
twenty-five loads, a full 60 per cent of
the total, sold on orders from Independent
concerns at other points.
Bulk of business, despite Its smallness,
waa mors or less scattered. Much of ths
supply sold at a spread of $7,1047.30 and
choice bacon animals topped at $7.40, the
highest price paid locally In over five
months.

SHEEP A good-slxed run of sheep and
lambs gave the demand for anything fat a
rather cautions tons and none of ths regu
lar buyers appeared vorr anxloua
execute orders. It waa a dull market dur
ing early rounds, especially In ths wether
branch of the trade. Heavy sheeD not onlv
outnumbered arrivals of lambs or year
lings, but ths situation was also Influenced
by ths fact that one of ths leading packers
let big muttons severely alons.
About torty-flvo load of stock mads Up
receipts, tho estimate producing aa add
dosen loads of Iambs, almost twenty loada
of wethers and fully ten loads of yearlings.
Practicaly everything cams from ths range
and a limited ewe supply was drawn largely
1 rum woiner snipmema mora or less mixed.
Something like 90 per cent of total arrivals
bad plenty of grass finish for killing pur
poses.
Heavy sheep showed poorest action and
landed, with soma difficulty, at generally
steady figure. Fat wsiasra bad to bs
strictly good to sell at or near $S.2K, de
sirable ewes moving at very small dis
counts. Handy yearlings sot out well In
several Instsnces. one string bringing $4.26
early. If anything, the trade In heavy
sheep waa rather weak than otherwise,
while handy grades ruled fully Steady and
fairly active.
l-imbs met with considerable Inquiry, but
actual business was late In starting. Choice
rangera reached $.75 shortly after the mar
ket opened and various other ssles In
rtlpsted a trade strong to some higher. It
waa a "packers' affnlr." of course, as
sorts of thin lambs thus far this season
have been too light to attract much com
petltnon from feeder buyers. Even In
sheep fresh feeder offerings were hard to
find, resulting In a genersl advance of 101
15c.

nearly twenty letters and personal applica
tions, some men Inclosing their checks for
$25 with the request that the correct
amount be deducted for dues and initiation
fees and the balance returned, or. If the
amount was Insufficient, more would be
sent to cover the deficiency. The ex
ecutive committee has not decided yet what
these amounts will be. and probably will
not do so until the secretary returns from
the east.
Only one person will be, given member
ship In any Un of buslnesa. and then he
must be proprietor, partner or corporate
officer In ths concern represented. The
scope and effectlveneas of a club of this
sort Is recognised and memberships are
already in demand.

Hill Line to Change
Legal'Department
N aanx4aana
Fart of the Work of the Omaha Office
( it to Be Taken to the .
Chicago Office.
Continuing Its policy of centralisation the
Hill management of the Burlington rail
road has shorn tha Omaha legal headquar
ters of some of Its jurisdiction, taking from
the legal department here Colorado, Wyo
ming, South Dakota, Montana, southwest
and northwest Nebraska and northwest
Kansas.
In the past the territory named has been
under ths Jurisdiction for legal purposes of
the Omaha legal department of the road
There have been two attorneys K. E
Whltted of Denver, who has been In charge
of the legal affairs of the road in Colo
rado, southwest Nebraska and northwest
Kansas, and E. T. Clark at Sheridan,
Wyo., In charge of Wyoming, South Da
kota and Montana both, however, report
ing to the general legal headquarters here.
Under ths present plan both of the at
torneys, who are continued and given ad
ditional authority, will report direct to the
Chicago offlcea of the company.
The change reducea the importance of
the Omaha legal offices of the road, put
ting them in the same class with those at
Denver and Sheridan.
In reducing the work of the Omaha office
It Is expected that there will be a corre
sponding reduction in the force. It being
stated that the heads of at least two of
the legal lights will fall into the basket
Just who the men to be decapitated at the
Burlington offices are it is said Is not
known.

BATH HOLDS YERITABLE LEYEE
y
Winner of the BooUoTera' First Frist
Congratulated by Many. v
TELLS HOW Hfc WON THE PRIZjt
Saya Me T-led to Pot Himself In tko
Place of tfce Artist Who Drew
tke Plrtarea for tk
Contest.
J. H. Bath, winner t Ths Bee's Book
lovers' contest, held a veritable laves in tats
little florist's shop In the northwest com
of the Boyd theater building All Monday
morning. Friends, strangers, other cotv
testaota and also-rans dropped In by twos
and threes and the dosen to sea the proud
new owner of the Apperson Jack Rabbit,
which was the first prise.
Cries of "Honk! Honk!" wers shouted tit
through the open door by other facetlotiB
minded friends, who, too busy to slop,
wanted to remind Bath that they also re
joiced In his good fortune.
Although many of the participants In ths
reception accorded the florist were friends
and acquaintances, by far the larger num
ber were strangers. In ths majority at
cases other contestants. Many showed a
touch of envy, but all congratulated htm
warmly. One woman from South Omaha,
who stopped la and Introduced herself, was
typical of hs rest.
"I should have liked the auto myself,"
she said. "I and my .son were both trying
hard for It. However, sines you have been
pronounced the winner I am glad of your
good fortune And want to congratulate
you. Without doubt you deserved It. How
did you do It?"
How He Did It.
This last question was the general oa:
"How did you do It?"
"There Is no great, secret about It," al
ways replied Bath modestly, "I simply
outguessed the artist. A picture might
on the face of it mean several things. Ths
Idea I worked upon was to put myself In
the place of the artist and try to get tho
meaning he (the artist) was Attempting
to convey."
"What are you going to do with It"
was another question always asked, with
generally a little envy lurking In ths tones
of the questioner's voice. -
"Well, I am going to learn to run It first
of all," waa the reply. "Then I am going
to get all the fun out of It that thers Is
In It."
Bath's mother, a smiling, sweet-faced
woman of possibly 60 years, came Into ths
shop during ths progress of her aon'a re
ception.
"I certainly am proud of my son," ah
said, "he has been a great reader ever
sines he was a little fellow, but I never '
have thought it would ever win him an
automobile."
Motor Boat Owners

matter of securing the necessary dock- '
age facilities at Florence and on the Iowa
side of the river, near Council Bluff a
When these committees report it will be -more

project Is feasible.
Whether or not a club is organised. Dr.

30 to Clinton, la., by way of St. Louis. The
